like what you have done here Alex, great track

Great piano melody . And the strings behind giving the right emotion

Original variations on a beautiful melody.

Oh this piano intro is fantastic! I absolutely adore it! Great work Alex! Brilliant track!

Ephémérie 5 (Extended Orchestral)

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
